| Reverse description | Rectangular colored field reproducing a Renaissance-style devotional composition depicting the Madonna enthroned at center, holding the Christ Child, and attended by multiple music angels in flowing drapery. The scene, rendered in warm sepia and ochre tones, is faithful to a classic Old Master drawing or engraving tradition, with fine crosshatched detail evoking the character of a period sketch. The composition fills the rectangular flan completely, with the colored image applied to a milled silver substrate. |
